(based on beta version 4/16/99) The movie is only 30 mins, so it only introduces the characters and the basic plot of the manga it's based on. According to Hana Yori Anime, they didn't make a TV series. The art is similar to Marmalade Boy (color, character design, etc). The ending song is by Nishida Hikaru, an idol> singer who grew up in the U.S.! No translation notes for the beta version, but there should be something on the final release. Genre: high school love-story; shoujo
(based on beta version 4/16/99) The movie introduces the characters of the series, and revolves around a school fair to recruit new members for their club Akindo, where they make their own "goods" (clothes, objects, video games) and sell them at a flea market. Although Gokinjo Monogatari is by the same manga artist as Tenshi Nanka ja Nai, the art is quite different. Gokinjo Monogatari characters are lankier, and the colors used are brighter. They wear funky clothes too, but that's because they're all artists. No translation notes as of yet. Genre: high school love-story; shoujoExtra stuff: We'll See
